is manufactured by Dudick, Inc. and applied in accordance with the manufacturer s recommendations. THE SYSTEM Steri-Soft consists of a moisture tolerant primer, gauge raked bodycoat and a highly UV stable topcoat. This total system provides a strongly bonded monolithic floor with excellent physical properties. Steri-Soft is only intended for interior applications and consists of the following components. Primer: The prepared concrete surface is primed with Steri-Soft Primer 87 to provide the wetting out required for good bonding. Do not allow primer to puddle. Allow the Steri-Soft Steri-Soft Primer 87 to cure a minimum of 24 hours before applying Steri-Soft Flake Bodycoat. Bodycoat: The seamless, resilient and decorative bodycoat utilizes flexible urethane resin binders to provide a seamless floor that offers ergonomic comfort and acoustical noise reduction. Sealer: The high solids satin finish sealer provides exceptional UV stability with added abrasion resistance. Cove: Cove base installation with this material is not recommended. Contact Dudick representative for cove base recommendation. ESTIMATING QUANTITIES AND ORDER BILL OF MATERIAL APPROXIMATE SQUARE FEET PER GALLON ** PRIMER 87 Primer 150-200 ft 2 Bodycoat 12-13 ft 2 / gallon @ 1/8 Sealer 50 Option: Sealer 30 400-500 ft 2 @ 3-4 mils WFT 250-300 ft 2 @ 6 mils WFT Coverage rates will ultimately be determined by applied thickness and the degree of broadcast coverage. **Quantities shown are for estimating purposes only. Coverages will vary due to porosity of substrate and other environmental conditions. All quantities are estimated and will be affected by job conditions and workmanship. APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS SURFACE PREPARATION Concrete must be prepared mechanically to remove surface laitance. Oils, grease or other contaminant must be removed prior to surface preparation. Concrete must be free of curing compounds and form release agents. Surface texture should be similar to 60-80 grit sandpaper or the visual standard, CSP-3 from the International Concrete Repair Institute. The prepared surface should have a nominal tensile strength of 250 PSI per ASTM D-4541. All concrete substrates must be checked for moisture prior to primer application using the Plastic Sheet Test per ASTM D-4263. Additional surface preparation will be required if a 60-80 grit texture is not achieved and the surface laitance not completely removed with the first mechanical preparation procedure. Mechanical preparation removes laitance, exposing honeycombs or voids beneath the surface which must be filled with Scratch Coat 300. (Refer to separate product bulletin) ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS Temperature of the concrete substrate must be between 60ºF and 90ºF. Relative humidity must not exceed 75%. Substrate temperature must be 5ºF above the Dew Point. PRIMING PRIMER 87 MIX RATIO (BY VOLUME) 79 fl.oz. 49 fl.oz. PRIMER 87 POT LIFE TEMPERATURE PRIMER 87 50ºF 90 min. 75ºF 60 min. 90ºF 30 min. 2
PRIMING Concrete: Mix the pre-measured units of Steri-Soft Primer 87 with. Prime all concrete surfaces to be coated with Steri-Soft Primer 87 at 3-4 mils WFT. Do not allow the primer to puddle. Basecoat should be applied only after the Steri-Soft Primer 87 has cured a minimum 24 hours.

RECOAT TIME MINIMUM MAXIMUM Steri-Soft 24 hr. @ 75 F 120 hr. Primer 87 Body Coat 16 hr. 120 hr. BODYCOAT Before beginning application: Curing by-product vapors can slow cure. Assure that there is air movement, exhaust, and fresh make-up air, especially in floor-to-wall and wall-to-wall corners.. Pre-mix Steri-Soft Bodycoat resin and hardener separately for 3 minutes until uniform. The Bodycoat is most easily blended using a stainless steel propeller, 5 diameter and ½ bore. Combine pre-measured and and stir for approximately 2-3 minutes, thoroughly scrape the sides and bottom of the container and re-mix for another 30 seconds. Pour mixed bodycoat directly onto the primed concrete. The mix should be spread over the floor with a Midwest CAM Gauge Rake @ 1/8-3/16. Allow Bodycoat to cure for 18 hours @ 75 o F before applying sealer. Urethane products are very sensitive to minimum re-coat times and temperatures. Contact Dudick representative for more information. SEALER Before beginning application: Curing by-product vapors can slow cure. Assure that there is air movement, exhaust, and fresh make-up air, especially in floor-to-wall and wall-to-wall corners. This will assure that vapor laden air/environment will not impact curing. Assure that application personnel are equipped with respirators fitted with approved organic vapor cartridges. Pre-mix Sealer 50 resin and hardener separately for 3 minutes until uniform. Combine pre-measured and and stir for approximately 2-3 minutes. Thoroughly scrape sides and bottom of the container and re-mix for another 30 seconds. Apply Sealer 50 using a flat squeegee and back roll with a high quality 3/16 nap roller. If using Sealer 50 with added glass beads, use 5 mil squeegee. Apply at a spread rate of 450-500 ft.² per gallon. 3
NOTES The pot life of Steri-Soft system components will depend upon the temperature. To prevent material waste and avoid damage to equipment, do not mix more material than can be used according to the corresponding tables. Do not attempt to store mixed material. Residual material should be properly disposed of at the end of each work period. Application of Steri-Soft in direct sunlight may lead to blistering, pinholes, or wrinkling due to outgassing of air in the concrete and high substrate temperatures. Double priming, shading or evening application may be required. Consult a Dudick representative. CLEAN UP Use S-10 Cleaning Solvent to clean tools and equipment. Acetone and MEK may also be used. DO NOT USE LACQUER THINNER. SHIPPING Refer to Material Safety Data Sheets. Exposure to resins and hardeners through direct skin contact and/or inhalation may cause severe dermatitis reactions in some people. Cleanliness of the skin and clothing is critical and must be of paramount concern. Fumes are flammable and heavier than air. Proper ventilation should be maintained to minimize breathing of concentrated fumes. Suitable respirators should be used during application. Safety glasses, gloves, and suitable protective clothing must be worn at all times during application. If contact with hardeners occurs, remove any clothing involved and flush the skin with flowing water. Discard the clothing. Do not attempt to wash and reuse it. The components of the Steri-Soft System liquid can be removed with S-10 Cleaning Solvent, MEK, or Acetone. Keep open flames and sparks away from the area where materials are being mixed and applied. If a rash occurs, remove the individual from the work area and seek a physician s care for dermatitis. STORAGE Warning: All Dudick products classified by DOT with white, yellow or red labels must not be mixed or stored together as an explosive reaction can occur. All products should be stored in a cool, dry area, away from open flames, sparks, or other hazards. When properly stored in their original, unopened containers at 50 F-75 F, the Steri-Soft Primer 87 will have a 6-month self life. Steri-Soft components will have a three-month shelf life. Containers that have been opened will have a shorter shelf life. Storage in direct sunlight or excessive heat will reduce working time and shelf life. SAFETY M.S.D.S.: Material Safety Data Sheets must always be read before using products. The components of the Steri- Soft Systems are intended for application by experienced, professional personnel. Dudick, Inc. can supply supervision to help determine that the surface has been properly prepared, the ingredients correctly mixed, and the materials properly and safely applied. If Steri-Soft is to be applied by your own personnel or by a third party contractor, please be sure that they are aware of the following safety precautions: In case of eye contact, flush with water for at least 15 minutes and consult a physician. If swallowed, do not induce vomiting; call a physician immediately. NOTE: Dudick, Inc.
